The only problem is that the article arrived at this site with a "From" line as being from Gene Goss! He may be rather surprised at this. Perhaps you might like to post something to correct this. Also, I suppose I should have put my email address in my signature. It is drew@anucsd.anu.oz.au I apologise for any confusion I might have brought. I am not very familiar with dealing with moderated groups - all Australian groups are unmoderated - is there a correct procedure one should follow? Thanks. Drew Corrigan (drew@anucsd.anu.oz.au) [Wierd. I suspect my posting software got confused. The problem is that news posting software is very nonuniform. Quite commonly by the time I get postings, there are several sets of headers. The last set is almost always the real one. So my software simply strips the others. So if you begin a posting by including an entire message from someone else, with all of its headers, it might be possible to confuse the software. I think this is the first time it's actually caused a problem. Unfortunately I can't see any easy way to detect this case automatically, and headers get munged so often that it isn't practical for me to do them by hand. --clh]
